- Helped develop the newest implementation of the AW Library Links Module, in which C#, HTML, CSS, and the ASP.NET framework were used to create a responsive web-form to be deployed to a userbase of 561 schools, 250 000 students, and 54 000 staff.
- Previously, the Links module only had options for a title, singular category, link types, and a description. Working with a team of 5 other individuals in an agile scrum environment, we congregated with clients biweekly to discuss and implement new features. By the end, I had added the ability to add multiple categories and subcategories (Which involved reworking how data was being stored in the database), two separate thumbnail types, a tag system, and a reworked UI.
